Item 8.01 Other Events.





As previously reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by D8 Holdings
Corp. (the "Company" or "D8 Holdings"), a Cayman Islands exempted company (which
shall migrate to and domesticate as a Delaware corporation prior to the Closing
Date (as defined below)), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"SEC") on April 15, 2021 (the "Announcement 8-K"), the Company, entered into an
agreement and plan of merger, dated April 15, 2021, by and among the Company,
Snowball Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"), Vicarious Surgical Inc. ("Vicarious
Surgical"), and Adam Sachs, in his capacity as the stockholder representative
(as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the "Merger
Agreement"). The Merger Agreement provides that Merger Sub will merge with and
into Vicarious Surgical, with Vicarious Surgical being the surviving corporation
of the merger. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are
referred to herein as the "Business Combination." In connection with the
proposed Business Combination between D8 Holdings and Vicarious Surgical, D8
Holdings filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-257055) (as
amended, the "Registration Statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"). On August 9, 2021, the Registration Statement was
declared effective by the SEC and on August 12, 2021, D8 Holdings filed a
Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus relating to its special meeting scheduled
to be held on September 15, 2021 (the "Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus"),
to among other things, obtain the approvals required to consummate the Business
Combination.


Since the initial filing of the Registration Statement, purported shareholders of D8 Holdings have sent demand letters in connection with the Business Combination (the "Demand Letters").

D8 Holdings is including in this Current Report on Form 8-K certain supplemental
disclosures regarding the Business Combination. D8 Holdings and D8 Holding's
board of directors believe that the allegations and claims asserted in the
Demand Letters lack merit, and that the supplemental disclosures set forth
herein are not required or necessary under applicable laws. However, solely in
order to avoid the risk of the Demand Letters delaying or otherwise adversely
affecting the Business Combination and to minimize the costs, risks, and
uncertainties inherent in defending the claims, D8 Holdings hereby voluntarily
amends and supplements the Definitive Proxy Statement/Prospectus, as set forth
in this Current Report on Form 8-K. D8 Holdings and the members of its board of
directors deny any liability or wrongdoing in connection with the Definitive
Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K
should be construed as an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under
applicable laws of any of the supplemental disclosures.

Forward-Looking Statements



This Form 8-K includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
"safe harbor" provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of
words such as "estimate," "plan," "project," "forecast," "intend," "will,"
"expect," "anticipate," "believe," "seek," "target" or other similar expressions
that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of
historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not
limited to, statements regarding the Company's and Vicarious Surgical's
expectations with respect to the completion and timing of the Business
Combination. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not
identified herein, and on the current expectations of Vicarious Surgical's and
D8 Holdings' management and are not predictions of actual performance. These
forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are
not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a
guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or
probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to
predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances
are beyond the control of Vicarious Surgical and D8 Holdings. These
forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties,
including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political
and legal conditions; the inability of the parties to successfully or timely
consummate the proposed Business Combination, including the risk that any
required regulatory approvals are not obtained, are delayed or are subject to
unanticipated conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the
expected benefits of the proposed Business Combination or that the approval of
the shareholders of D8 Holdings or Vicarious Surgical is not obtained; failure
to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed Business Combination; risks
relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect
to Vicarious Surgical; future global, regional or local economic and market
conditions; the development, effects and enforcement of laws and regulations;
Vicarious Surgical's ability to manage future growth; Vicarious Surgical's
ability to develop new products and solutions, bring them to market in a timely
manner, and make enhancements to its platform; the effects of competition on
Vicarious Surgical's future business; the ability of D8 Holdings or the combined
company to issue equity or equity-linked securities in connection with the
proposed Business Combination or in the future; the outcome of any potential
litigation, government and regulatory proceedings, investigations and inquiries;
and those factors discussed in D8 Holdings' Annual Report under the heading
"Risk Factors," and other documents of D8 Holdings filed, or to be filed, with
the SEC. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect,
actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these
forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that neither Vicarious
Surgical nor D8 Holdings presently know or that Vicarious Surgical and D8
Holdings currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results
to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition,
forward-looking statements reflect Vicarious Surgical's and D8 Holdings'
expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of
this Form 8-K. Vicarious Surgical and D8 Holdings anticipate that subsequent
events and developments will cause Vicarious Surgical's and D8 Holdings'
assessments to change. However, while Vicarious Surgical and D8 Holdings may
elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future,
Vicarious Surgical and D8 Holdings specifically disclaim any obligation to do
so. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing
Vicarious Surgical's and D8 Holdings' assessments as of any date subsequent to
the date of this Form 8-K. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon
the forward-looking statements.



No Offer or Solicitation



This Form 8-K shall not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or
authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the Business
Combination. This Form 8-K shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of
securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or
sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the
securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be
made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of section 10

of
the Securities Act.
